The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The main factors were an increase in partner revenue driven by strong project bookings, improved performance at group companies, and gross profit growth exceeding the increase in SG&A expenses. The company also explained that orders from new customers expanded and that high-value-added services, including Zero-Order Consulting and Zero-Order LAB, grew. Meanwhile, the gross profit margin declined due to the increased assignment of partners.
